The Urban Lifestyle Collection by TRETOW

The Urban Lifestyle Collection is the first ever line released by TRETOW, a boutique design studio founded by Ryan Tretow. The entire 6-piece collection consists of furniture and lighting made from materials like solid walnut wood and matte black powder-coated steel, all built and sourced locally by the studio and its partners in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

Designed with principles in affordability, quality and accessibility, the line was released at the 10th annual Guerrilla Truck Show in Chicago and was awarded “Best In Show” by a distinct panel of judges, including Creighton Berman, Karen Herold (of Studio K) and Marta Calle (CEO of Crate & Barrel).

Vy Yang enjoys contributing to Design Milk, playing fetch with her goldendoodle Conan, and occasionally writing on her blog It’s After Five, her creative outlet to let loose on after she has left her regular 9-to-5 for the day.
